Lack of sufficient information and unusual shape of object
elgatdd as reported by observer, render a possible stimulus
difficult to determine. Iocation of sighting exposed
to New York City air traffic and also that rby West-
chester Co. Airport. Vertical movement s grests helicopter
sighting. Apparent protrusions could have been moon's re-
blades. Insufficient information prohibits
further speculatio
